White Chocolate And Lemon Coffee Cake Recipes

LEMON COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
• Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.

LEMON COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• To make homemade lemon curd, in a saucepan melt the butter. Remove from the heat, add sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest, and whisk to combine. Add eggs and whisk well. Place over medium heat and cook for 5-6 minutes until all sugar dissolves and the mixture is thick enough to hold the marks from a whisk. Cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line 8 x 8 x 2-inch square baking pan (or 9 x 9-inch pan) with parchment paper leaving an overhang on the sides, spray with non-stick spray and set aside.
• First, make the crumb topping. In a bowl stir together flour, sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Then add melted butter and stir with a fork until pea-size crumbs form. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
• To make the cake beat softened butter for a minute, then add sugar and beat until creamy. Add lemon zest, vanilla, and eggs and mix to combine.
• Add sour cream and mix well, then mix in flour, baking powder, and salt. Spread half of the batter in the prepared pan.
• Spread 1 cup of lemon curd over the batter but don't go all the way to the edges (or it will burn during baking).
• Spoon the remaining batter on top.
• Beat cream cheese, vanilla, sugar, and egg until smooth. Spread cream cheese mixture over the batter.
• Sprinkle with a crumb topping and bake for about 45-55 minutes or until the center has set. If it browns too much tent the top with aluminum foil.
• Cool for 30 minutes in the pan, then pull the paper and lift the cake and transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Dust with powdered sugar before serving if desired.

WHITE CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Place the white chocolate (broken into pieces) and hot water in a microwave-safe bowl.
• Melt the white chocolate in 20 second intervals, stirring between each time, until the chocolate is melted. Set aside.
• Separate the eggs, placing the egg yolks in a small bowl to set aside for later and place the egg whites in a mixing bowl. Beat the egg whites until they are frothy and hold stiff peaks. Set the frothed egg whites in the refrigerator for later.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add in the egg yolks and vanilla. Mix well.
• Add in the melted white chocolate and mix well.
• In a small bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda.
• Add the flour mixture to the butter/sugar alternately with the buttermilk, beating and scraping the sides of the bowl as needed between each addition.
• Carefully fold in the egg whites and mix just until the egg whites are fully mixed in.
• Grease with shortening and flour two 9" cake pans.
• Divide the cake batter evenly between the two prepared pans.
• Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25-28 minutes or until the center of the cake bounces back when you touch it.
• Allow the cakes to cool for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• **Melt the white chocolate in advance and allow it to come to room temperature. If it is hot when you add it to the whipped butter, it will melt the butter and the texture of the frosting will be off.
• Using a stand mixer, beat the butter for 2 minutes until it is almost white in appearance. Drizzle in the white chocolate, mixing and scraping the bowl as needed as you pour it in.
• Add the powdered sugar and vanilla.
• Beat the frosting for 2-3 minutes until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
• Place one cooled cake layer on a cake plate.
• Frost the top of the cake layer with frosting.
• Place the second cake on top.
• Frost the outside of the cake, both the top and the sides, with the rest of the frosting, smoothing it was you go.
• Decorate the top with additional shaved white chocolate or fresh fruit if desired.
• This cake can be stored at room temperature for 24 hours, then refrigerate any leftovers.
